Although, this time it’s going to be kind of different.
I’ve always thought of doing this post, but with all the things happening with
Pixie Hollow, I never really got the chance to … :/

So, many of
you guys read multiple other blogs about Pixie Hollow, most of which (if not
all of them) are very well known! So I thought about introducing to you pixies, 2 new blogsand a not-so new but unfortunately not very well-known blog, and
hopefully give a chance to these three amazing fairies, to become better known!
They’re worth it after all :D

PART 1

Starting I would
like to introduce you to a new blog run by the very sweet Rose Morningmist,
called “Pixie Hollow-Our Biggest Secret”, kinda catchy huh ? XD

Rose, just
completed her work on her blog , after months of working on it, and I am very
proud to present it to you! However, there are still some technical
difficulties that the blog’s going through, such as being able to access the
blog only through a direct link.

So here is
the link, make sure to bookmark it until
the problem is solved ,so that you can access it ! J

The first
thing I noticed when entering Rose’s blog, was how well organized it is! As I see
it, it’s essential for a blog to be well-organized, in order for readers to be
able to browse through it more easily! So good job with that Rose! ;)

What is
more, the blog has multiple sections you can browse through such as:

“Art
Gallery” (This one I find , is an awesome thing to have in your blog ! J )

The “Ask Rose” tab about Q&A , is extremely useful for all those “lost” and
confused pixies out there!

At the “Links” tab, you can find the links to other
pixies’ blogs , including mine :P

And
finally:

The “Quotes tab”
(First time seeing this in a pixie blog! Great idea, really interesting!)

And …“The PH Riddle” ,a tab, where you can find a
riddle on the ultimate secret of PH! J

Cool right ? ;)

I managed to solve it! How about you? Did you
find the answer? If yes, please comment below or on Rose’s blog :DMore posts
are about to come soon in her blog, so everyone please check it out and maybe
leave a comment to let her know we support her in this new adventure! ;)

(｡◕‿◕｡)

PART 2

Now it’s
time to move on to the next blog! This blog, is owned by the amazing Dew-Dew Pixie
or just Dew-Dew, (her pen-name , also known as
Kool Kat XD and Angie Stormfly ,)
and is one of my VERY BEST friends on the Hollow! I love her so much, she’s
awesome and I feel awful for not having
done this earlier :$

Anyways,
back to the topic! Her blog is named “The
Pixie Diaries”, which is a very cute name for a pixie blog, don’t you think?

Angie or
Dew-Dew, has started posting in this blog quite some time ago, and updates it very
often! I really love the fact that she is still so full of excitement about her
blog, and also so active!

Isn’t her blog very cute? I think that’s SO
important in a blog! It makes readers' stay more pleasant and much longer ;)

Way to go Angie!!! XD

Also, in
one of her posts, she includes a link to a second website with pixie prizes…I’m
gonna be honest… I have no idea what exactly there’s going to be in there, but
it seems interesting so you might want
to check it out for yourselves, and help her improve it :P

As you can
see, Angie’s blog has a variety of different things you can check out, which
always makes a blog more interesting J

Moving on,
her blog is filled with cuteness, and on the right side you will find a
mini-chat (inspired from my previous chat :P You copy-cat! :3 ) , some virtual
pets (I had one like these two when the blog first started! They’re so
adorable!!! ) , and much more tools!

Therefore,
go check out Angie’s blog as well, she’s done and continues doing a great job, and
is worth taking some time to look through it J If you like it, please leave a comment and give her your opinion on her blog ✿◕ ‿ ◕✿

Part 3

So…this one
is kinda special! It’s about a cute little blog called “Pixie Hollow Plan”. It’s
owned by one of my readers , Savanah Correa, a really adorable and really
humorous fairy, that was inspired to make a blog of her own thanks to mine.!
That alone, means so much to me! The fact that I inspired her to be creative! I
think it’s amazing!No atually, i have no words to describe this feeling!

Savanah’s
blog, is still new, so it’s not really known or advanced with all those features big blogs have. L However, I find her
posts short but informative, and I like the casual style she uses when writing.
Also, I really like one of her posts on
a crazy dream she had when PH closed down… it’s hilarious, you should definitely
check it out!XD

Savanah’s a
bit of newbie to this, so let’s all be kind to her, cause I’m sure that in the
near future, she’s going to gain more experience and become an awesome blogger ^_^. After all...we all have to start from somewhere!Right ? :)

Thank you
for always supporting the blog Savanah ♥

Everyone, please leave a comment on
Savanah’s blog. Her posts are very interesting and I’m sure she’ll be happy to
see your opinion on them!

So that is
it, for this article guys! What do you think Pixies? Did you l find it interesting
? Would you like me to suggest more new blogs in the future? If you are a new
blog owner, feel free to e-mail me a
link, and if I like your blog I might feature it some time in the near future
;)

P.S: Another
post with suggestions, is hopefully coming this week, although it’s not about
blogs this time ;) Stay tuned to find out what it’s going to be! I think you’ll
really like this next one :D J

It’s been a really long time! Spring is here, and the blog is updated
to match the mood! :D What do you think ?

This time I
really went out and took a break from everything, including the blog.. and were
a little late to fulfill my promise to you.

So today, as
you can see, I have a brand new post for you my pixies!(GET READY THIS IS GONNA
BE HUGE :D ),(*If you manage to get till the end of this post I’ll give you an ICE-CREAM xD ,)

Ok so ,
back to the topic now! I know that everybody is really sad about Pixie
Hollow Closing down.. and is hoping for it to reopen…Now I know that the title
of this post has probably confused you a
bit ..rightwell let me explain!

Despite
being “burnt” down , Pixie Hollow has
actually revived through its ashes! :D That’s what I meant by it “Rebirth”.

Still… Maybe
not as a whole, but that’s where the shattered pieces part comes in!

I’ve
noticed everywhere (well almost everywhere..) in the web, little parts of our favorite game, and today I am going to introduce them to you! I know how much you miss our beloved Pixie Hollow, so these “pieces” a.k.a
games, will give you a bit of the feeling, wich that game used to give you ….

“The First
piece”

2016 UPDATE!:
Hey guys! I'm in the very happy position to say that since the beggining of summer 2016 FairyABC -Pixie Hollow's Recreation- works once again and Pixie Hollow is REVIVED/BACK !
(The game is nothing like it was in 2015.Now it's a lot like the original!)

-click on the images-

The game is an amature project and still a work in progress so you might encounter some problems...In that case this post will be super helpful to get you started!:

On the blog's main page you can also find the latest updates for the game!What follows is what I wrote back in 2014.You can just skip to the second piece if you want,just scroll down ;)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~2014:

This is a
video, I discovered just today, since I really had cut off most connections with any Pixie Hollow related stuff these months… . So it is a video on Youtube
by Izzy Foxstone, giving us a bit of an info and a small preview, of the game .this now “famous” fellow sparrow- man by
the name of Wind Muddle, together with his friend Apple tried to make, this new
Pixie Hollow, everybody was talking about these months after Pixie Hollow
closed down! :D

Unfortunatly, the website is unavailable for now as they are
adding new features, and so I haven’t got to try it for myself and therefore
won’t be able to tell you much on this L However I’ve got to say a HUGE
bravo to Wind Muddle and Apple for taking up such a great and amazingly HARD
project! To find out more here is the link to their facebook page:https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1425878040974180&set=a.1388521301376521.1073741828.100006559929676&type=1&theaterand the link to the video, so check for yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQoFw0vdbeg

As you can
see it looks very much like Pixie Hollow, but the fairies are a lot bigger xD

(The pictures above were taken from Wind's and Apple's Facebook Page)

“The Second
piece”

2016 UPDATE!:I'd just like to add here Rose Morningmist's recreation of Pixie Hollow on Worlize.Many people have recreated it on that website but I find Rose's version is by far the best one:https://www.worlize.com/PIXIEHOLLOW-Rose

NOTE:In order for the link to work you have to already be logged in to Worlize!Sneak Peak of Rose's PH: (click on the images for full size)

This is
also something really interesting and
worth mentioning,similar to the first game I mentioned above, and it’s something I “discovered” thanks to this blog’s very own comment
section! So BIG THANKS to Ethereal Spark for making that comment! She has
actually tried to recreate the game, using an app called Worliz
that lets you create your own online world! I think it is very nice and she really worked hard for it! I visited
it myself, and I found a few fairies hanging around there!

Although I kinda
failed to make my avatar the right size so I’m a bit …. huge! XD (and the wings are a fail too -.-) .OK so in conclusion..my avatar is a fail ... but who cares, i'll work on that....someday!..maybe 0.0

Therefore I
think you guys should spread the word! This is the link to her “Pixie Hollow”
:

If this link doesn't work then you can go ahead and try the link in the description of this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYt3UoKNusU

Also here is the blog of the Worlize Pixie Hollow:
http://worlizepixiehollow.blogspot.gr/
They are actually organising a party on May 17th! :P (For more info visit their blog!)

So...I decided
to do a little review of this little version of PH! :D

Now..i won’t
lie to you…don’t expect this to be like Pixie Hollow as we knew it.

Since, something
like that is EXTREMLY hard to make, exceeding a fan’s abilities…

But I tried
making my own world there too,(not a fairy –one though :P ) and I can assure you
it needs a LOT hard work to make one. Anyways, back to the review.

First
things first, Ethereal Spark has made a great job creating all the meadows and
using the same soundtrack for them as the one used in the game! Awesome, you go
girl! (You can find all the meadows at the map, wich is the same as in the
normal Pixie Hollow :D )Although the backgroung has been altered a bit by trying to make it the right size...but it's the thought that matters,right ? :) :P. And as you enter every new place you can also watch a related video from Youtube! :D

Here you can see Dewdrop Vale, and i have on an different avatar that i got in Queen's Boutique :P

She
has also recreated the shops , where you can get a pre-made fairy avatar,(most of avatars are really well made :) , and of course it's totally free! :D

Otherwise, everyone can upload
their own fairy-avatar, and that could even be the picture of the fairy or sparrowman you
used to own in PH! :O! (Although here ,I have to mention that you would have to use
Photoshop or GIMP and ect , to make its background transparent, and stuff like that)

Now another
great thing is that you can of course chat with other fairies! :D Wich means that you can
have a place where you and your friends can meet up again! J

However the
bad news is that you can’t really own a
fairy home,it only exists there as a place and all the fairy homes are kind of.. how do i say this :P.... well see for yourself :

However, you can always create your own fairy room in your own world! :D And you might not be able to play the
same games as in PH, but that would be too much to ask anyways :P !

So that’s
pretty much it, I’ll let you explore the rest for yourself! :D Everyone can
also comment below and maybe propose some things Ethereal Spark could try adding
in, in the game, and I shall contact her and let her know! :D

“The Third
Piece”

UPDATE 2016:I think most people already know this by now but "Harvest Hustle" one of Pixie Hollow's minigames is back!How awesome is that ? :DJust click below to play ;)

"The Fourth Piece"

(2014)So this
one, had caused quite an uproar and excitement back when Pixie Hollow had
closed down. It is no other than -as most of us call it- “The Asian /Chinese
Pixie Hollow”, although its name in Chinese is actually translated as “Litlle
Flower Fairy” .

Now this is
not really Pixie Hollow, but a Chinese game that has many common features with
out Pixie Hollow. It is actually really cool from what I’ve been told and from
what I’ve seen in videos my friends recorded, but personally when I tried to
play it I HAD NO IDEA WHAT WAS GOING ON. That is of course no wonder since..erm
the game is in Chinese and I might speak English,.. French and Greek.. but I don’t
speak any Chinese so… I was totally lost there.. Despite that if you are Chinese, or
speak Chinese you should definitely give
it a try! :D And if you’re a fan of Manga and Anime you will definitely find
this cute! ^^ Otherwise, you could go through the trouble of watching some
tutorials on how it works..but that’s gonna be a bit tiring !(Seriously.. it's a a real pain -.- )

One day,
I was wandering around the official "Disney Fairies" website , and discovered
this (once new ) , game called "Pixie Party Couture".

http://www.disney.co.uk/disney-fairies/pixie-party-couture

When you
enter the game you are “invited to the Purple Moon Party” from the rest of the famous
fairies,

and so you
have to mix-match some random clothes in a matching “cards” game and create
outfits.

In the game you gain extra points by making some “combos” or getting extra talent points by matching the clothes that
belong to a fairy from a specific talent like so:

Tinker talent bonus

Water talent bonus.

Fast flying fairy bonus.

By gaining
points, you level up and gain Credits with which you can buy clothes for your fairy’s wardrobe.

Except from the clothes and accessories though ,you can’t
really personalize your fairy which is pretty disappointing, but at least, I guess
it reminds you a bit of how it was to dress your fairy up back when PH was open
J

Finally you can alays print your fairy! :D

“The Sixth Piece”

2016 UPDATE!:You may or may not know this but "Create a Fairy" UK doesn't work anymore! :(Fortunately you can still play the game on the french website,it's pretty much the same: -click on the image-

The only difference you might encounter is with the names,because some words are in French...Well it's not a bid deal.Let me know If you'd like me to make an english tutorial though since I speak French (just comment below ^^)

(NOTE!: Let
me mention here, that for this game too, you need an account in the uk website ,in
order for your changes to be saved!!! )

The game,
offers you the chance to get a bit of a taste from the old Hollow. It allows
you to choose a talent,

customize a fairy exactly like in the Old Pixie Hollow, by changing its
skin, hair, eyes ,wings and posture and of course its clothes! :D

Here take a
look:

You can
also, give it a name, using the same way as in PH! :p (I chose a random name here)

Finally, you can customize your avatar's home,
choosing from a small variety of furniture, but some really cute and magical
ones! :D (In my opinion at least .. )

When you’re
done with that ,you can always invite your friends to visit your page J And yes, you do have a Pixie Page,
that looks almost exactly like the one you were used to!If you want to,you can
visit mine here :D :
